Theodora, A Novel

This scholarly edition of Du Bois's 1770 novel, Theodora, A Novel, introduces readers to a unique voice in women's writing of the eighteenth century that has been undeservedly dismissed by literary history for far too long.

Lucy Cogan is Lecturer in Eighteenth-Century and Romantic Literature at University College Dublin. She has published a range of articles on William Blake and women's writing in the long-eighteenth century, and produced a scholarly edition of Charlotte Dacre's first novel, The Nun of St. Omer, for Routledge. Her forthcoming monograph is entitled, William Blake and the Failure of Prophecy.
